Bronchocele present a characteristic radiological appearance. Their significance varies according to the clinical context:--a picture of diffuse bronchopathy with mucoid impaction would suggest a medical treatment;--in the absence of any bronchopathy the X-ray should seek a under-jacent lesion which would respond to surgery.

In the light of a case of right triple ureter in a 5 month old girl, the authors review the embryology of the ureter and describe the different types of triplication. A general review of the literature including 70 cases gives an indication of the circumstances of discovery and the contribution of radiology. The complications of complete ureteral triplication are the same but greater than those of complete duplication and are related to the ectopic position of the ureteral orifices with regard to the trigone. They are dominated by reflux and stasis in the case of high ectopia and by false incontinence (20% of cases) in low ectopia.
